Educational strategies & policy; Inclusive education & mainstreaming; Organisation & management of education

In today's global education landscape, diversity and equity are essential for fostering inclusive, fair, and supportive learning environments. These principles ensure equal opportunities for all students while preparing them to thrive in a diverse, interconnected world. However, challenges remain in fully integrating diversity and equity into educational policies, curricula, and practices. Leadership plays a critical role in addressing these challenges by advocating for inclusive policies and embodying these values in decision-making. By prioritizing diversity and equity, educational institutions can create lasting positive impacts on individuals and society as a whole. Creating Positive and Inclusive Change in Educational Environments aims to advance the conversation on diversity and equity in education, spotlighting the pivotal role of leadership in promoting these values. It seeks to deepen understanding of the diverse challenges faced within educational settings, and how these can be navigated to create inclusive, equitable learning environments. Covering topics such as distributed leadership, higher education, and students with disabilities, this book is an excellent resource for researchers, policymakers, educational administrators, academicians, and more.
